First episode after a two week hiatus. I do a shorter episode today and dive into why I like books, and what they can do for you in your life. I talk about nature and how we must adjust to nature, we must learn to harness it's power and energy. We can gain so much by using the free energy provided to us. Lastly, I touch on vibrations and how they interact within our social interactions as well as in our daily life. Hope you find something useful to add to your life.  Only good things to come to you.

In today's episode, Freshman catcher Matt Brinker takes over, he asks me some deep questions and we take a deep dive into baseball and life. We talk about the mindset and mentality that helps us handle adversity. I speak about my progression of love for the game of baseball, and we talk about hobbies outside of baseball and their importance to our performance.

Nature knows all, the universe works in certain ways for a reason. Baseball, Life and Nature all have seasons, this way we do not get burned out and we are able to sustain our energy throughout the year. There are times of abundance and times of scarcity. We must find a way to enjoy each season and adapt when we are called upon. I talk about how the seasons are correlated and why we need the "bad" seasons as well. Enjoy. 

I go solo again today, speaking about my nutrition journey over the years and how I got to where I am today. I speak about how my nutrition fuels me and how it effects my performance on and off the field. I speak on how nutrition has effected my body and my mind. I give tips on how to shop and tips on how to avoid what the marketers want you to buy. I give you advice on things that I have struggled with in the past and mistakes I made on this journey. One size does not fit all. Check out @primalbsbl or Twitter and Instagram!

It is easy to forget how far we have come. it is easy to forget why we started doing something or why we first fell in love with it. If we can eliminate the drama, the bullshit, and the distractions, we can go back to a time where the only focus we had was to enjoy the moment and the task we were immersed in. 

Transformations do not happen overnight, they take time. Slowly move the needle. Little by little. Success is not linear, it has ups, downs, in- betweens, plateaus and peaks. I relate my situation to a damn butterfly and there is nothing you can do about it. Enjoy. 1% better today.

There are two main types of critics, external and internal. On today's episode I talk about external critics. These could be sports fans, or just normal people in your everyday life. I talk from an athlete's perspective on sports fans, and touch on how I try and avoid them and tune them out. A quote from "The Man in the Arena",  which is literally what this podcast is called, "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena. A little side note, I stumble and fumble at times in this episode. I have been struggling with fluidity in these podcasts, especially when I do them solo. More speaking and more deliberate practice will improve those issues. I could edit it out, but why not let you hear me struggle a little.

The brain is the body's command center. The brain has amazing power  that we are able to harness. We have the ability to create/envision incredible things. The brain is your personal remote control and you can use it to your advantage more than you think. Using your remote control takes practice, but as you use it, it becomes stronger and stronger. Use the remote to make your show (your life) the best for you.

Today I have 5th Year RHP Pitcher Nick Davis on the show as our special guest. Nick started his career at Northeastern as a Walk-On with no guranteed roster spot and has turned that opportunity into being one of the go to guys out of the bullpen for the Huskies. Nick is someone who is constantly finding ways to better himself on and off the field. He is someone you want to be around and someone you want in your circle. Nick has dealt with injuries and setbacks in his career and relentlessly powers through every obstacle that is thrown his way. This is a guy you ill want to keep tabs on as he is destined for greatness and success.

Today the Northeastern Baseball team flew into Raleigh as we prepare for our mid week against Duke. I had time to sit down with two freshman pitchers Carson and Charlie. In today's episode we talk about their recruiting process, and how they have adpated and adjusted into their first year of college baseball. These two have amazing maturity and awareness for players their age. This is why they will be so successful in this game.  We touch on a little of everything in this episode,  we even end with some music reccomendations for country fans out there, definitely a don't miss.
